BOTTOM LINE

Bulletproof Coffee is a meal replacement drink made with coffee, MCT oil and grass-fed, unsalted butter. It’s high in saturated fat, which can increase cholesterol, but the keto-friendly drink helps some dieters lose weight.

What is Bulletproof Coffee?

Bulletproof Coffee is a drink made from coffee, unsalted butter and MCT oil. You can make the coffee at home as a high-calorie morning drink or meal replacement. The company sells starter kits that include all the necessary ingredients.

Bulletproof Coffee designs its products to improve energy levels and focus. Ingredients include coffee grounds and MCT oils like Brain Octane and XCT Oil. Brain Octane and XCT Oil are both derived from coconut oil — Brain Octane is made from caprylic acid, and XCT Oil is made from a blend of caprylic and capric acids.

How to make Bulletproof Coffee

Bulletproof Coffee is easy to make with only a few tools and ingredients from its store. The three main Bulletproof Coffee ingredients are coffee, MCT oil and grass-fed butter or ghee (clarified butter). Here are the four steps to make Bulletproof Coffee:

Brew a cup of Bulletproof coffee using filtered water. Use a metal filter to preserve the natural oils in the coffee beans.

Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of Brain Octane or XCT Oil.

Add 1 to 2 tablespoons grass-fed, unsalted butter. For a dairy-free version, you can substitute 1 to 2 teaspoons of grass-fed ghee, which is available in Bulletproof Coffee’s store.

Blend everything in a blender for 20 to 30 seconds or until it looks like a foamy latte.

The company also sells Instamix creamers that can be added directly to a cup of coffee and do not require using a blender.

Losing weight with Bulletproof Coffee

The company claims that dieters can lose up to a pound per day with Bulletproof Coffee combined with a high-fat, low-carb diet and intermittent fasting. This diet is similar to the ketogenic diet and is designed to hack the body to make it function optimally.

On the Bulletproof Coffee diet, you start the day off with MCT oil and butter. MCT oil contains high levels of omega-3s, which are supposed to help with inflammation, gut health and energy levels. All of these things together combine to help people effectively lose weight.

Where to buy Bulletproof Coffee

Bulletproof Coffee can be bought on the company’s website, from Amazon and at retailers across the nation like Walmart and Hy-Vee. On Bulletproof Coffee’s site, customers can subscribe to receive Bulletproof products regularly and save 10%.
